Everton's American Owners, The Friedkin Group, Seek Sale

Everton Football Club has been put up for sale by its American owners, The Friedkin Group (TFG), less than two years after they took control in December 2024. TFG, led by Dan Friedkin, is now open to selling its controlling interest if a suitable buyer emerges.

The group had previously explored external investment options but has decided to consider a sale after addressing significant financial uncertainties and completing the move to the new Hill Dickinson Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. Everton confirmed this development in an official statement, emphasizing that they would only entertain offers from parties capable of protecting the club's interests and ensuring responsible stewardship.

TFG has appointed investment bank Moelis & Company to assist in the sale process. The ownership transition in December 2024 ended a turbulent period for the club, which had faced financial challenges and relegation threats.

TFG prioritized stabilizing finances and completing the stadium project, which is expected to enhance matchday income and support long-term commercial goals.
